HARGIS, LOGAN SLADE
Logan Slade Hargis, 17, died on Tuesday, Aug. 14, 2007, in a single- car
accident. Logan resided with his parents, Michelle and Christopher Crawford
in Sunny Hill. He was a senior at Sumner High School where he excelled in
both academics and sports. A favorite teacher recalls of how he was the
sunshine of her day. He was also a member of FCCLA and Just Say No Club. He
loved football and had been a member of the team his entire high school
years. He was a member of the powerlifting team, where he achieved the top
cowboy spot in the "1000 lb. Club." Logan had a deep love and commitment
for his family and friends. Logan is remembered by his family for his
contagious smile, politeness, quiet humor, willingness to help and unending
devotion. His hobbies were riding four-wheelers, swimming with Seth,
Connor, Ayden and friends at the gravel pit, dancing and playing sports.
His future aspirations were to become a radiologist. Christopher always
said, "Logan, I want to grow up to be just like you," and "That boy can do
anything." He will be missed by all that knew him. His family and friends
feel blessed to have known him and been part of his life. Visitation will
be at Spring Creek Baptist Church on Thursday, Aug. 16, from 6 p.m. to 
9 p.m. and Friday, Aug. 17, from 8 a.m. until service at 11. He was
survived by his mother, Sherri Hargis, of Mount Hermon; father, Clyde

Fredrick and Margie Ellis, Malcolm and Carey Wascom, all of Mount Hermon,
